Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Berkshire Council procured the design, supply and installation of photovoltaic solar panels at its Integrated Waste Management Site in Padworth, near Reading. This is a construction and renewable-energy installation project, covering the design and provision of the panels as well as their installation at the council’s waste-management facility. The requirement is site-specific and concerns solar generation infrastructure rather than general building or energy services. The council is the buyer and the work is associated with its Padworth site.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to eEnergy Services UK Limited. The award was made on 18 December 2025, for £899,555. The contract period runs from 22 September 2026 to 21 September 2030. The council used a restricted procedure, with an initial pre-qualification stage followed by an invitation to tender for successful applicants. The submission deadline for the initial stage was 24 March 2025 at 17:00. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lot breakdown or evaluation criteria are stated in the available process details.

The award demonstrates demand from West Berkshire Council for a complete, site-based photovoltaic installation at its waste-management facility: design, equipment supply and installation were procured together. Suppliers competing for a comparable future requirement would need to show they can deliver all three elements as an integrated package, with the technical and construction capability to install solar panels at an operational waste site. The selected supplier provides a benchmark for the type of contractor that can meet this council’s requirement. The restricted, pre-qualification-led route also indicates that credible suppliers should be ready to evidence their suitability before being invited to tender. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable for the procurement, so the scale need not rule them out; a capable specialist or delivery partnership could be relevant.
